The athletic handbook covers two different eligibility requirements: previous semester eligibility and current semester eligibility. Prior to each season, the athletic department will check student grades to ensure that they meet the following:
- Passed 5 of 6 classes previous semester
- This requirement DOES NOT apply to middle school students.
- This requirement DOES NOT apply to freshmen during the fall season.
- Must be passing 5 of 6 current classes
- This requirement DOES NOT apply to middle school or high school student-athletes at the beginning of the fall season due to the first day of the season in relation to the start of the school year. However, student-athletes must be passing all classes at the time of the first weekly grade check in September.
REGISTRATION WINDOWS
The first registration window opens July 1st through July 31st. All levels (middle and high school) and all seasons (fall, winter, and spring) will be available. Additional windows for winter and spring sports will open again prior to those seasons.
Registration is completed via Arbiter Registration.
Please refer to the Athletic Registration 2026-2027 guide for all registration windows and season start dates.
Beginning with the 2026-27 school year, Clio Athletics will use Arbiter Registration for all middle and high school athletic registration. With Arbiter Registration, a parent/guardian creates a Family Account, which gives them and their student-athlete the capability to register for athletics and complete all required paperwork.
Please be sure to follow these steps to complete your registration and ensure that your student is registered for athletic participation:
- The parent/guardian creates an Arbiter Registration account.
- You may create your account by clicking here.
- Activate your Arbiter Registration account, from the activation link that will be automatically sent to your email. Note: this email may go into your junk folder.
- If you are having trouble creating your account, receiving the activation email, or logging in, you may contact Arbiter Support at registration@arbitersports.com or call them at 800-311-4060.
- Once you have successfully created your account and are logged in, please click on the link below to complete your registration at the Clio Area Schools landing page.
Many of our programs hold off-season and summer workouts. Schedules vary based on program. Please contact the coach of the program you are interested in or the athletic office if you need additional information on summer opportunities or sport-specific information.
